I saw that Crazy documentary long time ago and it’s crazy how the authorities/court don’t even recognize these as bogus.  

The new owner has not authorized the work on house.

I.e. what if one doesn't get along with the other-Any benefits to trying to officially convert it to a duplex with the city if it is zoned to allow MF?

However, if they do, they are likely just 'okay' with it and would likely leverage the 10-07 market rent analysis on the appraisal to actually calculate and determine the official DSCR during Underwriting.Hope that helps, if you do have a tenant who is willing to be flexible, the 12 month is always the safest bet.

This is a normal procedure and the business type does not officially matter for this strategy.  

Try to get tenant B to sign the lease before he gets the keys from tenant A, and try to do another quick inspection before tenant B officially moves in, which becomes the move in condition report. 

They have no authority in the county run areas and if the county changed their rules they would run afoul of state protections.

So they have to be placed & picked up quickly, or at the very worst cost so little that it doesn't matter at all if the authorities remove it. 

Hopefully they can assist as you suggested Steve....or at least put me in touch with someone at Mosaic who has a higher level of authority to get this resolved. 

The market-rate housing is made affordable by having a landlord that accepts Housing Choice Vouchers (aka Section 8) and charges a market rent that is below the payment standard.Public housing authorities (PHAs) typically set the payment standards based on HUD's fair market rents (FMRs) at the county level of geography.
